Williamwood Parish Church is a Parish church of the Church of Scotland, serving the Williamwood area of Clarkston, East Renfrewshire. It is within the Church of Scotland's Presbytery of Glasgow.

The Building

Designed by Wilson & Son and Honeyman (now Honeyman, Jack and Robertson); Williamwood was dedicated 28 June 1937. Built in 1937 as a church extension charge, the church is a fine example of mid-1930s church architecture. Built in red brick with a short belltower, the original and somewhat austere interior has been upgraded and enriched.


Williamwood Parish Church houses an early Allen Digital Organ. The two manual and pedal organ (Model MOS-600) was installed in 1971. It was one of the first Digital Organs installed by the Allen Organ Company.
